JFI Tamarind Round-up

The talent and enthusiasm of my fellow food bloggers never cease to amaze me! I asked you all to come up with a dish that features Tamarind, and you all happily played along! I am overwhelmed by your support! There are enough varieties of Tamarind based dishes to create a full-fledged multi course meal. My heartfelt thanks to all the participants and a special thanks to Indira of Mahanandi, creator of Jihva for Ingredients for this opportunity!

Without further ado, presenting the JFI-Tamarind round up!

Note: This round-up was generated automatically from the entries you have submitted through the entry form, after a bit of tweaking and re-categorizing. I have double checked to make sure that all the entries are included, but in case I am missing your entry, please e-mail me or leave a comment in this post.

    Thank you for this tantalzing tamarind event, Sig. Wonderful contributions and there are so many new tamarind recipes to try.

    Automatic roundup, now that’s genius. Share the code at DH forum, please?:)

    :) Thanks for letting me host this Indira… I would love to share the code, but it is not in a shareable form, very customized to this… One day I will clean it up and make it more generic, and then sure I will share it with everyone… :)
